So when someone says they are a "strict constitutionalist"

[Horse with no Name]

that means that they love guns, don't think women or black people should vote....what am I missing?

1. That's really not in the Constitution, lol.

[Mendocino]

2. Separation of church and state

That one flies over their pointed sheet covered heads.

3. It also means the Constitution was Divinely inpsired

By the white fundie Divinity that is.

4. They want a return to the 18th century

However, the founders knew the future could change things and specifically made it possible to amend.

9. i would just add "christian" and heterosexual to your description and we would agree 100%

8. It means they are always

going to find excuses to come up with the views they already hold.

And are willing to ignore any equally valid evidence to the contrary of those views.

(see Scalia, Antonin)



My wife says the only true "strict constitutionalist" is someone who everyday, rain or shine, goes for a walk before breakfast.
